A palaeomagnetic study of lower Proterozoic granites from Western Kenya
(1979)
This paper reports a palaeomagnetic study of the lower Proterozoic granites, exposed in the western part of Kenya and dated at 2530 ± 50 Ma (λRb= 1.39 × 10−11 yr−1). Ten sites out of 13 have yielded stable palaeomagnetic ...

Size, life history and ecology in mammals
(University of Nairobi, 1979-12)
Allometric laws which scale numerous biomechanical and physiological processes to size in mammals have long been recognized and widely used in biology. There is now sufficient evidence to suggest that those life history ...
A Review of Some Methods Used in Determining Actual Evapotranspiration in East Africa

Results of a paleomagnetic study carried out on the exposed volcanic rocks on the western side of the South Kenya Rift Valley are presented. Nine stratigraphic groups ranging in age from Miocene to Pleistocene were sampled. ...
Evidence of a possible north-south shift of the western sector of the African plate—Discussion
(University of Nairobi, 1979-03)
A negative anomaly in the vertical magnetic field component at a site in Nigeria has recently been interpreted by Oni in terms of a possible north-south shift of the western sector of the African plate. In this paper, ...
Use of δ13C values to determine vegetation selectivity in East African herbivores
(University of Nairobi, 1979)
The quantitative plant species composition of the rumen contents of a large number of individuals from eight East African herbivores was determined by direct visual analysis. All plant species were classified as either C3 ...
